Except for a unique model which is the biggest cost factor. And for the other stuff it’s precisely what I said: you have absolutely no clue about the cost or work associated with that so you can’t make an informed statement about how worth the investment was for Gaijin. Literally only Gaijin can do that and it was probably worth considering that they did it twice now.
Yeah it’s a valid concern but that’s
A. Not the point of the discussion
B. Completely subjective
But that’s the problem: it’s circumstancial.
Ok so I’m looking at some of the promotional images that use the CG model from the short with the jankier union flags on the mantlets, which I believe is a sort of ‘beta design’, and I’ve noticed something.
The flag doesn’t have the shooting star motif with the AI Watermark-shaped thing, like. At all.
If we look at the top view, we can see that the definitely AI-Generated element of the final design is uh. Also different here.
The GenAI ‘Senrai Maidens’ Albums seem to be missing here, replaced with what… seem to be a collection of Actual Metal Albums, or at least album covers with actual bands on them. Presumably these were replaced last-minute because Metallica are. famously litigious.

The fact that people spent 70$ on a c&p mid premium mbt with AI generated “art” on it…

Only the biggest Gaijin supporters would do that.

Model wasn’t made from scratch as vehicles already existed.

Yes exactly so the biggest expense for Gaijin was already done which means that the additional pfp, skin, voices and trailer didn’t necessarily make the Senrai tanks more expensive to make per tank than a unique premium.
Click-Bait was made from the same model as Kate.
However, it hasn’t received pfps (I think), pillows, crew voiceovers or standalone trailers.
Extra work for less sales, but it is what it is. At least it’s not a complete and utter failure like Naval.

The only thing better is actual response from Gaijin, which isn’t happening.

Read that comment again slowly and tell me whether you understand the mistake you made.
True but until, all we can do is speculate.
Also didn’t the click bait arrive first?
I haven’t made a mistake.
Both tanks are just reskinned HC.
However, you trying to bring up “unique premiums” into the mix is irrelevant.

Just wondering, wasn’t going anywhere with the question.
So gaijin did a copy paste,changed some things of the tanks with AI and they are selling it for 70 dollars, imagine if someone buys these packs

Your mistake is thinking narrow minded and only looking at one of the senrai tanks. The expense was already done. Creating the senrai maidens enabled Gaijin to reuse assets with minimal additional effort. You cant just release a second clickbait without something extra and models like the 2A4M, OES and MBT 2000 got additional usage.
Me bringing up unique premiums is very relevant, because those are the expensive ones for Gaijin so reusing those for 70 bucks is insanely profitable.
Maybe they have some surprises for the next dev servers (thats the last hope)
